im thinking of putting in a drain plug in the back of my transmission pan. i figure if i do that ill have it welded rather than just wrench tightened with silicone tap. any drawbacks from doing this? if i wasnt laid off ild just get an after market pan.
the reason i want one is because just dropping the pan only gets out 5-6 quarts and since our transmissions hold way more than that, i plan on every oil change (5k miles), ill just go ahead and change what ever amount drains out of the ****** at the same time. this way you dont have the same old fluid in there for another 30k miles.
any advice other than "watch out for leaks"?
